as seen on paintersnyc!!!

Very thrilling (for me), and informative. All of it is helpful... even the negative stuff. Someone said, "It looks like easter eggs that didn't get found till halloween. Jesus, this stuff brings me down". YES! Exactly! An Easter egg that didn't get found until Halloween! Wow. That is me. A sad lost lonely little easter egg. That sounds so... so... so Richmond, or something. I'm glad it hasn't been all positive or negative, but lots of both; the all one or the other threads are usually the most boring.

I enjoyed very much the conversation on Painter NYC but I don't understand why you claimed to be represented by Matthew Marks. Did you hope to see whether or not it would change the tone of the conversation? Do you feel as if it did?

Martin, you are funny and a good artist. The Painter people seem increasingly moronic. I find it hard to read anything they write now. Just personal preferences/prejudices from most of them. Interesting to see people scramble to defend their stance and reinforce their bitter feelings. Defensive posturing I guess. The photo of your paintings in the ocean gives me laugh, cry feelings.

NOO! I cant beleive i missed it! I was beaten down by the anti sculpture crowd over there. Anyway what a hoot Martin. I am soo glad you got exposure and that you seemed to enjoy the comments- im gonna go check those out.Keep the fire!
